With Ning Tai here, Li Ji felt reassured and replied steadily: "Yes."
Hearing that he was about to go on another expedition, Ma Xiaoke immediately rushed to the military camp and found Ningtai.
"Captain Ning, has my father sent you on an expedition again?"
Ningtai was mobilizing the army. When he saw Ma Xiaoke coming, he knew that they were going to go on an expedition together. They were a little confused.
"Sir, the lord has given an order. As a big old man like me, I can't do any other work. I can only lead the army out, which can be considered as a contribution to the lord."
"Then I'll go hang out too?" Ma Xiaoke approached Ning Tai and said mischievously.
Without Ma Heng's order, how could Ning Tai dare to take Ma Xiaoke out? His scalp felt numb: "Sir, you fought for so long last time and you didn't fight enough?"
"It's over before I fight enough. It doesn't show my fighting power."
Come on, Ma Xiaoke led his army to sweep across the southeast, and his reputation has spread throughout the entire Central Continent. He still said that he had not fought enough. Ning Tai was speechless, and after a while he said: "In this case, I will ask the lord for instructions."
Ning Tai was about to go out when he was caught by Ma Xiaoke: "What are you asking for? I'm fine at home. I'm training with you in the army. My dad is very happy."
This is not the first time. Because of this matter, Ning Tai lost several opportunities for promotion. He could only smile bitterly and said: "Haha, since the young master is determined, that's fine. At worst, I won't get the military honors this time."
"Hahaha." Ning Tai agreed, and Ma Xiaoke laughed happily: "With me here, the chance of winning will be greatly improved. I will have more military achievements in the future, so don't be in a hurry."
Ning Tai had no choice but to nod in response. After mobilizing the army, he ordered Li Ji to be responsible for escorting the resources and left the military camp with Ma Xiaoke.
News of Ma Heng's westward march reached Sesha City, and Tuoba Xiangchang rushed to Luo Feng's office with the information.
At this time, Luo Feng was discussing the military affairs in the west with Jiang Yuxuan. When Prime Minister Tuoba arrived at the hall, he was stopped by Zhang Xinyi and said, "Guan Tuoba, is there something urgent?"
"Of course." Tuoba Xiangchang said, "I just got the news that Ma Heng from the south is also marching westward."
This is a good thing. Zhang Xinyi said happily: "Okay, I will inform the lord right away."
"Hey, hey, hey." Prime Minister Tuoba stopped Zhang Xinyi and said, "What are you reporting? The lord said that I can report directly inside." After saying that, he walked directly into Luo Feng's office.
Hearing the footsteps outside, Luo Feng and Jiang Yuxuan stopped to discuss. Seeing that Tuoba Xiangchang was coming, Luo Feng immediately said: "Tuoba Hongguan, you are just in time. Come and take a look at our military route."
Before Prime Minister Tuoba could speak, Luo Feng pulled him over to see the military layout. These layouts are all Jiang Yuxuan's strategies, and he is advancing step by step towards Dong Yuan's territory.
Prime Minister Tuoba took a long look, pointed at the military layout on the wall map and said, "The army led by Murong Yi has gone deep alone, which is very dangerous."
"Hehehe." Jiang Yuxuan said with a smile: "This is to lure the snake out of its hole."
Prime Minister Tuoba took a long look at Jiang Yuxuan and said, "Do you want to eliminate Dong Yuan in one battle?"
"That's right." Jiang Yuxuan said: "Using Murong Yi as a lure, we lured Dong Yuan to send troops to attack, and then used Zhang Xu's support to force Dong Yuan to push all his family wealth. Finally, Feng Ziying broke in and cut off Dong Yuan."
"This is an all-out war with too many links involved. As long as someone fails to complete the task, it will probably cause great losses."
Luo Feng said: "Now that all forces have risen, if we don't rise up, we will be annexed by other forces sooner or later. Now we have the opportunity."
Hearing this, Tuoba Xiangchang said: "Just in time, I also have good news. I just got the information. Ma Heng has sent troops to march west to capture Lu'an City. This will relieve our pressure and we don't need to worry about other forces in the south. Forces attack us and cut off our retreat."
"Haha, okay." Luo Feng said with a smile: "In this way, I will bring another banner of troops, and I will definitely capture Dong Yuan and occupy Dong Yuan's territory."
"I will follow the lord." Jiang Yuxuan said.
"Come on." Tuoba Xiangchang said, "Then I will still defend the city and ensure your resources."
"Okay, let's go." After Luo Feng finished speaking, he took Zhang Xinyi and Jiang Yuxuan to the military camp, and ordered Sima Hongyi to mobilize the army to prepare to march westward to eliminate Dong Yuan.
At this time, Murong Yi had retreated 20 kilometers away from the border of Deni City, preparing to find a place to fight Dong Yuan again.
Guan Pei came back after exploring the area. He came to Murong Yi and said, "Captain Banner, the terrain here is flat and there is a river on the left. There is no ideal terrain for ambush."
Dong Yuan's army has already caught up, and the footsteps and shouts can almost be heard. If they don't retreat, they may be overtaken by Dong Yuan.
"Nevermind." Murong Yi looked at the nearby terrain, then looked at Dong Yuanjun looming behind him and said, "You lead the melee troops to withstand Dong Yuan's attack. I will lead the archers to find a place to attack from a distance. Kill Dong Yuan first. Help for a while."
"good."
Just as Guan Pei was about to turn around and leave, a soldier ran up and shouted: "Flag Commander, Dong Yuan's army has been spotted ahead and has cut off our retreat."
The escape route is cut off, which is very dangerous. Murong Yi hurriedly jumped onto a high slope and looked forward. Not far away, there was an army, about a few thousand people, slowly coming here, forming a pincer attack with Dong Yuan.
"No." Murong Yi jumped down, raised the Ming-breaking Bow and said, "Guan Pei, you take part of the troops to guard here, and I will take the remaining troops to kill them."
Originally there were not many troops, but if they were divided into two, they would be even less. Guan Pei said: "In this way we will be completely wiped out."
"There is no other way, kill." Murong Yi shouted and rushed out with his troops.
If we don't deploy defenses, we will have no advantage at all. Before Dong Yuan could get close, Guan Pei immediately shouted: "Deploy defenses on the spot to resist Dong Yuan's army."
After hearing Guan Pei's order, the troops immediately spread out to both sides and formed a defensive formation.
Murong Yi rushed to Dong Yuan's army and saw the word "白" written on the hero's flag, knowing that this must be Dong Yuan's combat hero Bai Likui.
Bai Likui's combat power is not very good, but he does well under Dong Yuan. He is already a flag commander and Dong Yuan's main combat hero.
What Murong Yi wanted was to quickly defeat Bai Likui's army and tear a hole through it so that the army could break out.
At this time, you must not stop. Murong Yi ran and shot, and after three consecutive arrows from the Po Ming Bow, he stepped over the corpses of several Bailikui soldiers who had just fallen to the ground, and led the army into Bailikui's army.
Bai Likui led the army in front. When he saw someone coming to kill him, he wanted to go forward and ask who came. Unexpectedly, the other party came directly and saw that there were not too many people. He pointed his steel gun at Murong Yi and shouted: "Kill." , catch me the leading hero."
Murong Yi had just killed the two Bai Likui troops around him when he saw someone commanding the army not far away, seemingly pointing a steel gun at him. Knowing that the man was probably Bai Likui, he thought to himself: "You are dead." Kill towards Bai Likui.
